This page provides access to some of the key accounting information recorded in the compilation and
accounting database (CAD) of the UNFCCC with maximum flexibility in searching and retrieving data
through user-defined data queries. Data are provided for the 38 Annex I Parties to the Convention
that are also Parties to the Kyoto Protocol (Annex B Parties). The information presented in this
module of the data interface are classified into four categories:

Accounting parameters

Total GHG emissions from sources listed in Annex A of the Kyoto Protocol (Annex A sources)

Emissions and removals from LULUCF activities (Articles 3.3 and 3.4 of the Kyoto Protocol)

Holdings of Kyoto Protocol units

Data on GHG emissions from Annex A sources and net emissions/removals from LULUCF activities are
available for the first and second years of the first commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol. A
cumulative sum of data submitted by Parties within the commitment period is also available. For
holdings of Kyoto Protocol units, data are available for the beginning and end of the reported year.
for example, in 2011, data on the status of holdings of Kyoto Protocol units is provided for the
beginning and end of 2010.

The illustration below shows the entry point to this module.

When a category is selected, the rest of the fields such as classification, type of value, gas and
units are assigned a default selection which can be changed appropriately depending on the
user’s need.

The functionalities of this module are similar to those of the Flexible queries module, in
particular, with the “change layout” and “show item” functions. Please refer
to the flexible
queries online help section for further explanation nf the “change layout” and
“show item” functions.

Once the query results are displayed, the functions to export the data to other formats such as Excel
or CSV files, or to switch to the priner friendly version or the graph page can be utilized.
